  31. i seem to have found another of your videos lol. im having issues with a mopto z2f already got the bootloader unlocked but cant seem to do anything about getting twrp to start 🙁 i know this video isnt a moto z2f or android 10 but its the closest i can find on the internet. i have tried a couple written articles that still either suck or only get me this far.

    this is what i keep getting. id really love the help. i have been on this 8 hours now and growing tired of it lol

    fastboot: error: Command failed

  32. please help
    in CMD it says ''''''Twrp-payton.img file not found''' and when I tried to open it says its Corrupt. In cmd i have tried DIR /P command its showing the twrp image

  33. You always show a working phone method?? A lot people are bricked or corrupted os looking for instructions from recovery mode were you don't have the option of ENABLING DEVOLOPER MODE ECT…
